While we were on vacation Kev had a Shamrock Shake on his cheat day and I have been craving one ever since.
So, I altered some Shamrock Shake recipes I found online to make it a low carb treat. We are only a week away from St. Paddy's Day, so get your fill now or drink it anytime of year!
Here it is in all of its high calorie glory. I really liked it using half-and0
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of half-and-half cream
1/2 cup of water
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1/4 teaspoon of mint extract
1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
3 ice cubes
2-3 drops of green food coloring (optional)
*you can sprinkle grated dark chocolate on top for a tasty garnish
Procedure:
Mix all together in a blender and boom, a low carb take on McDonald's Shamrock Shake!
Nutritional Information: To come.
